Sandown Terrace, Chester, CH3

Elegant Living on the Cusp of Chester

Grade-II listed, Sandown Terrace is believed to have been built in 1849 for cotton broker William Titherington. Its pillared portico entrance and painted quoins set the scene for the splendid architecture within.

Park up in one of two allocated spaces for 1C Sandown Terrace and make your way up to the first floor, where you step into a quiet and tastefully decorated entrance hallway.

Carpeted in cream throughout the hallway, reception rooms and bedrooms, classic tones harmonise with the walls.

Turning right, discover the first of three bedrooms. Currently used as a single bedroom and study, this light and peaceful room frames views over the River Dee and The Meadows beyond.

Continue ahead into a large reception area with fitted wardrobes for coats and shoes, and space for a small sofa or armchair.

Idyllic Views

Light-filled living awaits in the drawing room on the right, where a large sash window floods the space with natural light and captures ever-changing vistas over the River Dee.

Generously sized, this room accommodates sofas, armchairs, side tables, a coffee table and a piano. Enjoy the warmth of the gas fire on winter days as weather patterns sweep across The Meadows.

“We never tire of the view, it’s never the same twice. It’s the perfect place to live.”

Wine & Dine

Returning to the hallway, turn left into the delightful kitchen–dining room.

A sociable hub, tiled flooring extends beneath a wealth of solid oak cabinetry, providing plenty of storage. A large central island offers a convivial gathering point.

Sconce lighting and contemporary pendant lights illuminate the space. Granite worktops provide generous preparation areas. Integrated Bosch appliances include a newly fitted washing machine and dishwasher, a cooker with double oven and grill, gas hob, extractor hood, fridge and freezer, along with a double-bowl stainless steel sink and LG microwave.

High ceilings and elegant cornicing add a touch of grandeur. The dining table enjoys pretty views of mature trees at the front.

Room for All

Continuing along the hallway, arrive at the main bedroom on the right.

Spacious and bright, the large double bed is positioned to take in incredible views over the flowing River Dee and the verdant Meadows. Wake to birdsong and the peaceful sound of rowers gliding across the water.

Fitted wardrobes provide ample storage. The fully tiled ensuite includes a vanity unit, large wash basin, P-shaped bath with overhead shower, WC and heated towel rail.

Next door, the luxurious main bathroom is fully tiled in soothing spa tones. It features a Sottini panelled bath with Grohe shower attachment, wall-mounted basin, WC, bidet and heated towel radiator. Porcelain tiles extend underfoot.

The second bedroom is a serene space with alcove lighting and room for a double bed. A large sash window frames leafy views of Boughton. High-quality fitted wardrobes, drawers and a dressing table provide generous storage.

Garden Oasis

Overlooking the River Dee, the communal terraced gardens are delightful year-round. Naturally divided, the lawns and terraces offer privacy and peaceful seating areas.

Follow paved pathways and flagged steps through rockeries, shrubs and heather borders. Maintained as part of the service charge, residents enjoy landscaped beauty without the upkeep.

Admire maple, conifer and holly for evergreen structure, and seasonal blossoms from laburnum, camellia and magnolia. From the lower level, enjoy direct riverbank access, where a pergola provides shelter and a private viewpoint across The Meadows.
